The thieves are probably using the illegal fruits of their labor on herorine. Personally I'd like to see Law Enforcement work harder on drug trafficking. It's what fuels the murders and thefts.

That doesn't answer the question raid by Ambrose99 at all. All you have done is repeat the claim of someone else that they had something happen and then you speculated as to why. I hope you get the difference between that and an actual fact.

To answer your question in the final paragraph, many years ago I knew a woman who had been raped at a party, only a room away from a group of young males and females who ignored her cries for help, either because they had something against her or because she wasn't part of their crew, unlike her attacker.

Cat:
Do you really believe that you are emotionally detached from NUGT? Really? I mean really?
If so, why is NUGT your current entire every single day focus?
Is it possible that you are simply defending your scattered ideas against other possibilities and are, instead of focusing on what might be best for you (financially) focusing totally on what you hope might happen vs. what is more likely to happen, statistically speaking?
Or are you, possibly to your detriment, simply trying to prove that you are right and that protecting your ego means more to you than making money and that is more important to you than what your net worth ultimately ends up being? Often, as has been proven in many studies, the "average" person would be happier to be found to have been proven right while at the same time learning that their being right meant that the lost money.
Of course, none of these scientific studies could possibly apply to you.

What it is is good practice at making "emotionally detached" trades,avoiding impulses,sticking with a theme,tracking political sentiment,Fx issues etc etc
All stuff that interests me.
Since I am (net) mildly bullish on gold for 2017.... why not practice running up the down escalator and vica versa ?
Meanwhile give me a shout when ENB hatches :)

You are clearly blatantly lying here domesticgoddess. You are the only person here that is guilty of revising the truth to suit your own political agenda. It is a well documented fact that the US debt has more than doubled during these past 8 years that Obama has been in office. You cannot deny that. Likewise, though, it is true that George W Bush put our country deeply in debt, with his insane and wasteful wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Both of the major political parties have been equally bad at mismanaging the US economy. I think that is probably why so many people turned to Trump in last year's election. The fact that he was an outsider was no doubt seen as a positive by many people.
| 4 |
revisionist. or alternate facts - call it what you will, but it is, what it is. Dubya went into the white house after BILL CLINTON had built up a budget surplus, and had us billions in debt by the time he scurried out of DC. Obama inherited that mess as well as the other messes Dubya, Rove and Cheney left.
yes and trump followed our tax laws as well in not filing for 18 years. i always hoped my president's goal in life was to find the loopholes that would enable him to dodge paying his country his FAIR SHARE of what it had provided for him.
trump s*cks as a business man and boss - if it fails? oh well, wasn't his money to begin with and tough for all those "nobody(s)" that were now jobless. he just walks away, never accepting responsibility. you don't see that already in his presidency? he's STILL going on about not winning the popular vote!

Nothing to be sorry about.
Second first: "Catholicism has been marginal to the African-American experience", is to me actually, counter-intuitive. To stay on the margin on a significant value item that is relevant to Christ is itself a statement of betrayal to His mission.
First: We "designate" a saint as patron for a value in the pretense that that value is actively - rather than rhetorically - supported.

"women rejecting their heterosexuality"
What planet are you living on? Women (in general) are more open in their sexuality than ever before in Western history.....because they are now free to do so.
| 10 |
What happened to free love from the 60's?
Why are women rejecting their heterosexuality?
More Regressive Liberalism. People have become less tolerant, less open, less free; more anti-social, more paranoid, more dysfunctional. A war of the sexes but a war against their own selves.

Trudeau's business sense is summed up by his comment to Peter Mansbridge in a campaign interview that small businesses are tax shelters. Obviously he is still spinning quite rapidly on his silver spoon.
| 4 |
So Dickinson and Wente are O'leary supporters? I think civilized countries are tired of amateurs running their countries. Trump and O'leary are difficult to like but they give the impression they bring expertise to the table. Trudeau feels good but leaves the impression he has few clues and not because he is dumb but has no business sense. It is energy sapping to address every special group there is and right now I would settle for jobs and a paydown of debt instead of adding yet more to it. Like it or not he is the front runner.

OK, they don't provide drugs, but they do provide the place and paraphernalia to inject drugs.
Same difference to me.
I think if these were strictly drug treatment centers with the goal of detox, then Gov't funding is OK, but not for a shooting gallery for people injecting death into their veins.
I think the people who support that are ignorant because they are enabling the addict who has no reason to quit.

We resist Trump every time we refuse to give to his campaign of hatred and fear. His fans spread it on this web site. We have many problems in this country. Immigrants are one of the least of them.

All manner of justifications are trotted out when one country attacks or invades another. Terrorists are a popular rationale, but so are Weapons of Mass Destruction, human rights violations, allegations that "we were attacked first," preemptive attacks based on secret intelligence, etc, etc, etc.
There's only one way to sort out whether a country was justified in attacking and invading another, and that's to investigate and prosecute the act. Was America justified in attacking, invading and occupying a sovereign nation because a terrorist organization was based there? That's for a judge to decide, just as it would be had Britain invaded Ireland because of the IRA.
| 4 |
well it does not always apply, invading afghanistan to get the 911 terrorist plotters etc was totaly justtifed, the crime was the talliban protecting terrorist. So you see it is not as clear cut as you are suggesting.

"Standing up for constituents" = "Kowtowing to Liberal threats/pressure."
| 4 |
We have to give credit to Sen. Murkowski for standing up for her constituents and voting no on Betsy DeVos. Like many of Trump's appointments, DeVos is clearly incompetent for her position. She knows little or nothing about the public school system, and the charter schools she has promoted in Michigan have done worse than that state's public schools. Trump is surrounding himself with billionaires, Goldman Sachs executives, and other special interest representatives that have little concern for middle or low income families, and our country will suffer for it.

Eugene has a rather effective public transportation system. Taxpayers support it. If you choose, instead of using it, to purchase an automobile and pay all the associated costs, should you get a tax credit for your auto, fuel, insurance and maintenance on your vehicle? Sorry, it doesn't work that way. We all know that voucher systems are a "scam" and provide financial assistance to the individuals who can pay the portion of private education not covered by the voucher...... They are NO help to the working class who can't afford to pay that difference. Make them progressive....with full vouchers for working class kids and decreasing with increasing incomes and then we can have a sensible discussion. Until then vouchers remain a "welfare check" for the wealthy... Gary (one of those damn illogical liberals) Crum
| 10 |
I am more than happy to contribute for the public good, and do understand the benefits to society in having an educated populace , as long as I can get credit or even a tax write off for the money I pay for private school.
You are the one (and only) liberal on this blog has a reasonable amount of logic (even though it is misguided at times :-)))) so I am sure you can see where I am going this. Surely there is a place we can meet at midpoint, At most Devos will give more options to those who would like to take advantage of it. As far as the campaign contributions go, we could compile stats like that on both sides, so let's not go there, right ?

Trump pulled her out of the same well connected swamp where Bush found Blackwater's founder, DeVos's brother.
Erik Prince is also advising Trump so he is clearly swimming around in the same swamp that started an illegal immoral war in Iraq based on lies designed for military profiteering.
"The Intercept’s Jeremy Scahill has revealed Betsy DeVos’s brother, Erik Prince, the founder of the mercenary firm Blackwater, has been quietly advising Trump’s transition team, including helping vet Cabinet picks. On election night, Prince’s wife, Stacy DeLuke, even posted pictures from inside Trump’s campaign headquarters. We speak to Scahill about his latest piece, "Notorious Mercenary Erik Prince Is Advising Trump from the Shadows.""

"The reason that Pence got to cast the 51st vote to decide this, is because of Harry Reid and the Republican obstruction of the Obama administration."
Let's get this straight. You just attributed the Constitution's grant of the VP's tie-breaking vote to modern events, ie. Harry Reid and Republican obstructionism? To quote directly from the Constitution:
"The Vice President of the United States shall be President of the Senate, but shall have no Vote, UNLESS THEY BE EQUALLY DIVIDED."
"because you used to need 60 senate votes to confirm."
Are you talking about cloture? Cloture is the procedure to close debate and bring a vote to the floor not on the vote itself to pass. They are two procedurally related but substantively different things.
| 4 |
Here's some wonk for you that no one has mentioned.
The reason that Pence got to cast the 51st vote to decide this, is because of Harry Reid and the Republican obstruction of the Obama administration. Reid got sick of the GOP blocking lower court confirmations because you used to need 60 senate votes to confirm. So Reid went and pushed the change through that you only need 51 to confirm all but Supreme Court Justices and reappointments to the Senate.
So Harry Reid shot us right in the foot, because Republicans are the best monkey wrenches in the politcal game. Wait, I thought I was a one dimensional shill. Rhyneocerous and Raised must be confused.

That's a snappy response but unfortunately not the point. DeVos falls in the "anybody but her" category for numerous reasons easily discovered by a person looking for facts.

Hey Globe! I've just read this article and then noticed the comment section. The first half dozen comments are completely derogatory "I hate Canada/Trudeau" screeds. And absolutely nothing positive to say about our country or its citizens.
Perhaps they are just miserable and unhappy people, with nothing positive to contribute, but as I look into it further, I find that they say the same kind of things in EVERY article that they comment on!
Then I assume that they must be robotic comments, but even robots are capable of more variety than this.
Perhaps there is something wrong with your comment engine - maybe it is somehow connected to some weird bizzaro world under the earth, where joy, contentment, and human warmth and decency have been outlawed, or eaten up by trolls and dark demons?
Anyways, just thought I'd let you know. Enjoy reading your paper and thanks for all the fish!

Peter and Johann. I hear and respect your view that Senator Murkowski could have voted against Devoss in committee. To be clear, Devoss is an abomination. But a couple of things, "behind the curtain" stuff. Maybe I'm fact-deprived here, but would a no vote in committee by Murkowski have carried the day in committee thus preventing her name from being forwarded, albeit temporarily, to the full Senate? I suspect not since the process still would have enabled both houses of the Republican dominated Congress to proceed without a committee vote/decision given applicable Congressional rules. We all know now what the outcome would have been and which played out today. The Senator would have fallen on her political sword in committee for nothing. I find it reasonable that she was intellectually committed to the bi-partisan notion of allowing for an up or down vote, which both parties always claim to want. She still took the political risk of going against Trump and her fellow Republicans.

She voted to advance DeVos when her vote counted. Don't be such an easily played fool.

I had the exact same experience - I did not notice the leftie thing though; it could have been, just cannot remember. In fact I was warned and had to click on the "I will be good" button each time. And it happened five times n a row and then boom I was "banned". Like you I read the posts and judged them civil.
I agree that what it was after was to force you to vote "uncivil" if other people had already voted uncivil.
It was insane for them to stat that without prior warning and concise definitions of what is uncivil. I did this happen to you recently? Mine happened a few days ago and I assumed ti had been turned off since it never happened again.
I also found articles where all the top posts each had dozens of "agree" votes with only a few percent "disagree"... yet they had all been marked as uncivil - apparently you can violate community standards even while the vast majority of the community agrees with you.
| 5 |
Did anyone else have the experience of being lectured to by civil comments for not rating a comment as uncivil?
It seems that others had rated the comments as uncivil and I did not fall in line.
What was interesting was that the sample comments were civil, but used the word "leftie". So apparently we are supposed to rate any comment with the word "leftie" as uncivil.
I failed the first two comments, but passed the third after figuring out that I was supposed to rate it as uncivil.

Definitely agree that this is suspicious. How many articles/investigations have been posted about other items of interest (immigration, housing, abuse of TFWs, etc.) with feign interest by the government, yet within hours there is action for this. It does warrant further investigation IMO, but to state an "overhaul" being needed is too much, too fast.

As a citizen I am VERY concerned about the political driver behind the issue of sexual assault
Globe & Mail files a report on the matter and PM Trudeau and all politicians go crazy to take this on as the most recent cause célèbre
Sexual assault is a criminal matter which needs to follow methodical investigation
If politicians intervene on such a sensitive matter we could swing the pendulum too far the other way where men are unfairly convicted of rape
The media report highlighted the case of a young woman who attended a party with her own vodka mix - she openly admitted that she was intoxicated to the point where she actually passed out - so why would the police officer not question her credibility and the facts of the incident
There is no problem with the police reviewing / updating procedures in cases of reported sexual violence
BUT we need not to go on a Salem witch hunt driven by politicians in a hurry to judgement looking for a new cause célèbre !

Testing is only a part of the process. Even high school in the U.S. require testing for children to see what their interests are. Germany spends the entire year introducing children to job opportunities. They sit down with their teachers and PARENTS to find out the direction they should go. Going to college is extremely competitive because there are so few slots to fill. German students took their careers very serious. In my opinion they were much more mature than American children. They are given responsibilities we would give an adult in the U.S. They even look different than our children. But this type of education system can never happen here because it would mean changes to our complete society. People in the U.S. can't show the same respect for a garbage man as a doctor even though they both are just as important. Without a garbage man disease and trash would pile up. In Bremen they have a statue thanking the pig herders for driving their pigs through town to eat the garbage.

Some good ideas have been floated in this discussion, accompanied by some not-so-good ones, but I have to take issue with one of them in particular that I fear might otherwise fly under the radar: The idea that it would be a good idea for us to adopt the model of some other countries, in which children are tracked into a particular educational and career path as early as 8th grade. One of the benefits of the US model is that "late bloomers"—and there are many, I was one myself—can emerge from our system and be successful. It's well known that individuals' brains mature at widely different rates; putting someone on a specific path simply because their brain hadn't matured enough by age 13 to pass a particular battery of tests seems a rather horrible waste of human potential and capital.

Yes, some of them are SOL on the original ban. They just got caught in the first actions. What I've heard on the news shows is that they have to start over regardless. That was the downside of the legal action--it would be too late for those harmed, with no remedy.
| 4 |
So am I to understand that those who arrived in US during ban with valid visas in their passports, had them physically stamped cancelled before being deported?
What will now happen when the Muslim ban is overturned by SCOTUS as unconstitutional? That would seem to mean those cancellations were unlawful, and would have to be reversed automatically upon reapplication.
Man what a bloody mess! At the least the courts appear to be leaning towards leaving the TRO in places until the substance is decided.

Very good point: because Canadians do not understand this culture they naively are being led to support things that they would find abhorrent. Ask anyone who has served in these countries what the normal cultural practices are regarding young boys and how young girls are passed around for the benefit of old men.
| 4 |
This is a culture with a high birth rate. Many families cannot support giving birth to multiple children.
Why is this family allowed into Canada? How will they (not us) financially support their 5 kids?
Here is Canada, fathers in this culture are selling their young daughters to old men within their culture.
For money. Here in Canada.

So you're saying we should spend what- probably about a $100 M to run a referendum we already know the answer to? Or have the government ram it through so it becomes a potentially defining election issue when in fact we have so many other real issues demanding attention? Is it not better to let it go so we can look for things we can agree on without necessarily developing and nurturing an enduring hatred for the opposing side in any political debate? And please- simplistic labels borne of hysteria from decades ago are not helpful- for example do you have an alternative to "socialist tax policy"? Maybe it should be corporatist, seniorist or anarchist- or something else- what? What else can the institution we choose to lead our society, the government, do but charge us social taxes to pay for its operations?

A commonly used phrase in Globe and Mail articles is to talk about, in the following order, how prices are high because of low borrowing/mortgage rates, a vibrant local job market, a higher percentage of incomes used to pay mortgages, and the bank of mom and dad all contributing to strong buying power.
And then after that list of those sorts of items, if it is mentioned at all as an item at the end, might be entered something about "foreign buyers" (which does not name China, and which is not even accurate, because foreign passport-holders spend less on houses in Vancouver than do investor immigrants who have bought Canadian passports).
I have pointed out the above under over a dozen news reports, that did that, over the past couple of years, as regular readers may recall.
Am I going to dig them all up for you per your request and assign "date stamps" to them?
Um, no.

Gee....I wonder if this internal growth in BC has anything to do with higher housing prices on Vancouver Island for example, especially the City of Victoria, Duncan and the mid island. All housing prices are going up there.
Victoria has seen consistent air traffic growth at their airport the last 36 quarters especially from domestic the passenger category. 2016 was the largest increase in domestic passenger growth numbers in history.
Nah...when you read the G&M and other MSM articles it's all because of the big bad Chinese. LOL.

Do some math. There aren't a lot of medical providers here. There's a state regulation that mandates that insurers pay at least 80% of U&C billed by providers and that U&C is based on Alaska billings only (not the other 49 states). Providers here realized this and consolidated (notice there aren't very many lone GP's....they all work for fairly large associations) especially medical specialists.
Now realize that you live in the THIRD MOST EXPENSIVE CITY for health care in the United States (Fairbanks and Juneau are 1 and 2). ANYWHERE out of state is cheaper. Insurance companies here will fly you and a friend to a center of excellence for a hip replacement or other surgery, put you in a nice hotel for the duration of recovery and bring you home and save 10's of thousands of dollars doing THAT, even though they've tried to bargain down the folks here.....
This is actually good news for EVERYBODY that needs a doctor in Anchorage.

Instead of the ASD starting their own health clinic, why couldn't they just go to local clinics like FirstCare, Primary Care Associates, Medical Park Family Care, etc? Why outsource services that can be done in Anchorage to a Seattle firm? Nothing ASD does ever seems to make sense.

Hana Highway is sliding into the ocean, inconveniencing many residents and visitors, and there is a recent death of a youngster falling over the edge. Hana Highway is in the second congressional district. The representative's job is to get federal assistance for the State to upkeep Hana Highway. And Hana Highway is a mere single example where a conscientious congressperson could be working on behalf of constituents. Her focus on issues outside of the second district, issues such as the nuts and bolts of infrastructure, is of concern because she was elected to speak for us. We did not elect her to serve as a some sort of ambassador. Why would we do so? We have a national executive with a Department of State and a Department of Defense. It seems she is trying to preempt them? Weird. Start fixing the Hana Highways of the second district....that is what we need. Help the State and the neighbor island counties to do what is needed. That is her job.

I read about that, and disagree on that interpretation.
From what I saw, they were teaching kids ABOUT Islam, at a level kids could understand. It was badly handled and some christian evangelical parents panicked.
http://www.snopes.com/islam-tennessee-school/
There's plenty of real events to be worried about, we don't need to make any up.
| 4 |
In Tennessee and Kentucky, Muslim teachers began teaching Islam in class,without any notice or permission. School kids were expected to recite the shahada oath of conversion, and to write it in their lesson books, as a school assignment. They had Muslim prayer sessions in class and girls had to wear hijabs as part of their "diversity" education. It was discovered when a parent checked the child's homework. and reported it. Parents were denounced as Islamophobic for being opposed to it. It has happened in school across the US. but it doesn't get any national news coverage.

That is totally untrue and has never been published anywhere. If you go to BC Stats under sub provincial population, the city of Vancouver's population has increased by an estimated 6000 people in the last year for a total of 640,000 not including Electoral Area A which is the UBC Endowment lands with another 13,000 for a grand total of 653,000. this compares to a population of 603,000 at the 2011 census. With all due respect, you shouldn't really say things you're clearly not familiar with.

Although metro Vancouver - which includes nearby cities like Surrey, Burnaby, Richmond etc, has an overall population of 2.5 million, the actual City of Vancouver is not showing substantial growth. Despite all the new condos being built, last year the actual population of the city declined.

What we are seeing here is an attempt to use democratic means to institute undemocratic principles. Veiled women, for example, have provoked confrontations over their right to wear veils at schools, in colleges and workplaces. On occasion, they have won their right to do so in our courts. In reality, these confrontations could easily be viewed as a rejection of social compromise. They can also represent both religious arrogance and subjugation. All are anathema in a liberal democracy and contrary to the beliefs of an egalitarian society such as ours. Yet, It's labelled Islamophobia and racism any time this sort of thing is rejected, questioned or criticized.

'Islamophobia'?
Why are the Muslim women expected to dress in immigrant baggy clothing while the Muslim men dress in Western clothing? Nothing separates cultures more than clothing.
When will the Muslim men stop viewing women as inferior?
Are people aware that Muslim fathers are selling their young daughters to old Muslim men? Here in Canada. For money. Their own daughters.
This is not 'Islamophobia', this is a huge concern of a culture that has entered Canada and shows no interest in integrating into the culture of Canada. No other culture has entered Canada and refused to integrate like the Muslim culture.
Don't use the word 'Islamophobia' and point fingers at Canadians, look to yourselves.

a judge determines whether a "law" is constitutional and does it conflict with set precedents.
personally i would quote trump in support of any of his delusions. you will be eating crow within days...hasn't that been the pattern? his big show of signing all this paperwork and now it's being thrown back at him because all it was was a "BIG SHOW" and not based in reality. has he not backtracked and spun every thing that he said he would do? he only cares about appearances - isn't that how he judges everyone?

We have a bastion of judges who no longer interpret law, but legislate from the bench and it is long overdue for them to be called out, and I doubt Trump cares about what extremists like you think, do you think anything you say catches him off guard ? Even Marketwatch gets it right : http://www.marketwatch.com/story/on-the-muslim-immigration-ban-the-law-favors-trump-2017-02-07
In the words of Trump - "you are fake news"...The scary thing is the masses (in your camp) believe you. And a Judge is supposed to interpret the law, not offer his opinion on what the law should be. And your unwillingness to accept the truth puts you in the schizophrenic/sociopathic camp as well.

What is it that makes people so dumb that they can't see reality in front of their face. This article is part of a concerted attack on Tulsi Gabbard's character.

So what is the desirable population target....I am curious to find out your thoughts....Perhaps we should repopulate Dawson City while we are at it.

Why are we giving EXxon, BP, etc welfare?
What possible justification can there be to provide aid to these corporate giants?

They are the most profitable corporations on the planet.

If they want to trumpet capitalist market propaganda,
..let them sink or swim in the market.

Either the state is required to subsidize all business,
…or the state should subsidize no business.
Subsidizing private profits is not the job of government.

There is no way we should sacrifice what's in our own best interests,
...just to take care of and prop up their corporate profits.
That's total idiocy.

At some point we must give up the assumption that this oil we incentivised to discover (at great cost to the State) will find a market any time soon. We have had problems with leases being held out of production (e.g Pt. Thompson); however, that was before fracking technology. Perhaps incentives need to be linked to actual sale of oil, not just the discovery of oil because "putting more oil in the pipeline" doesn't mean anything until state revenues are realized from that oil.

On a separate note, there is nothing more deliciously ironic than the former majority caucus members complaining about the legislative rules not being followed.

Actually, there are areas in NE BC where bison have been roaming free for quite a few years. In fact, they have done so well that they even allow limited hunts. (Limited Entry Group Hunts)
One of the guys I work with shot his first bison last fall near Pink Mountain, BC. Around historic Mile 143 on the Alaska Highway.

I hate having to go down to Montana every time I want to see those magnificent animals.

Hello Scott!
The writer you target with sarcasm actually wrote this:
"With the price of housing so high (and yes, it drive rents up too), more people are not able to save adequately for retirement."
That writer is fully correct. MORE PEOPLE (as in, increasing numbers of young working families locked out of local house price ranges) are impaired to save adequately for retirement as result of skyrocketing house prices. Those high prices expand two sets of people in society: The numbers of renters increase (who do not get a house buying opportunity of the sort that previous generations did) and overstretched buyers increase in numbers (who extend so much of their income on mortgage payments that they have less disposable income to buy products and services that would employ their neighbours).
Your pot-shot comment does not negate or rebut the points made by the writer. Why not admit the truth? Canada has made a mess of its two largest cities, failing young families working there.

"Pope Francis exhorts listeners to overcome the fears that drive people to seal themselves off from others."
But Holy Father, one has to acknowledge that Europe's fear (if one wants to call it that) comes after an actual wide-ranging global experiment is taking in massive numbers of peoples from different cultures.
That is, Europe began with NOT "fearing" the Other, and gave the Other the benefit of the doubt in a spirit of generosity and fearlessness.
The results of that experiment are directly reflected in current European opinion:
http://www.cnbc.com/2017/02/08/europes-fear-of-muslim-immigration-revealed-in-widespread-survey.html
Not even one European nation has more than 20% of its people strongly for what you want them to do.
Perhaps the fear in these liberal nations has much more to do with experience than with blind bias.

I was listening to Jennifer Keesmat prattle on , on TVO a couple of nights ago. She was asked about taxing foreigners on property ownership in Toronto. She said a tax wasn't on the table because foreign ownership isn't affecting prices here. So, if that's the case, why not introduce a tax similar to Vancouvers's. I mean, it shouldn't make much of a difference right? If there isn't much foreign buying going on then the tax won't make much difference.

Hello, editors?
Readers are smart. Readers know how to translate your gagged-by-political-correctness prattle into the language of reality.
And so, with Toronto and Vancouver, a paper may THINK it is being cleverly evasive when it comes up with cryptic sentences such as this one today:
"Views vary on how much limited supply is behind the sharp rise in prices versus robust demand from foreign and domestic buyers"...
... well, your readers, having been educated by Vancouver's experience, know that really what is going on is summarized by this sentence that does not appear in your report:
"The realtors, wanting big bucks, and the politicians and journalists, frightened and cowering in fear of being labelled (falsely) as racists (and fond of realtor donations and purchases of ads), will be brushing under the carpet the FACT that a city's house prices CANNOT reach dozens of times the average annual local income without an EXTERNAL source of money, such as overseas money flooding in."

You don't understand how the Constitution and the law work anymore than Trump does, it seems. The President does not have unlimited executive authority to do whatever he wants; he cannot act in a discriminatory fashion, as that would be contrary to the Constitution as well as the specific language of the Congressional statute that authorizes the immigration regime.
| 4 |
These activist "judges" are openly defying the Constitution and the law, they must be removed from the bench. I would go as far as saying that these so-called "judges" need to be arrested immediately. Judges are tasked with one simple job -- interpret the law. They're not supposed to showboat and make up the law based on what their personal political beliefs are.
I do not agree with Trump's ban, but since he is the legally and lawfully elected President, he has every right within the Constitution and the law of the land to implement it.

It is a very good read, and highly informative. Particularly section VI: Likelihood of Success-Due Process (pg. 19) which describes who is granted Constitutional due process rights (just about everybody, it turns out) and the fact that WH Council McGahn has no authority to amend an Executive Order.
If this goes to the Supreme Court, it would not surprise me at all if it was upheld in a 5-3 decision. The holes in the WH's argument are big enough to fly a 777 full of refuges through.

Whether you're for or against the ban, it's worth taking the time to read the order in its entirety.

How could you possibly know whether we had "real" insurance or not? Which is not even germane to the topic here at all. "With all due respect" you do not have a clue what you are talking about, wishful thinking is not fact.
| 4 |
With all due respect, I have to disagree.
First, the cap on CPP really has nothing to do with when you would decide to start collecting your benefits, because the earlier you start collecting, the smaller each benefit payment will be regardless.
Secondly, you should understand that the CPP is a simple income-support-for-workers program, with commensurate reasonably affordable fees. It is not an insurance policy designed or intended to support a worker's family beyond a basic payout and a supplement of your own CPP up to the cap.
If you want a real insurance plan that pays off a big chunk at death, you have to pay for it, which again, with all due respect, you (and your partner) did not.
It may seem unfair that those who live longer will get more out of their CPP and other pension plans, but this is a fact of life. If everybody lived to 100 or if CPP paid survivor benefits to all families based on the premiums their partner paid in, either the CPP would be bankrupt or unaffordable.

Trump has to save money for more forays into countries to route out terrorists where the U.S. ends up killing our soldiers and civilian families to the point we're told to leave and don't let the door hit us on the butt on the way out. Also, he has to save up so we can pay a million a month to pay for security on the White House and Melanie's digs. That's 12 million a year. But it's oh, so worth it, amirite?

I'm guessing you've never been a participant in these conferences – that's a pretty ignorant remark about nothing getting done! This is the way scientists from all different fields associated with resource economics & environmental science are able to meet and learn from each other. Alaska concerns like agriculture, timber, fisheries, coastal changes affecting communities, meteorological, tidal, water current, air and sea changes in different regions of the state and in the Northwest, changes in tundra elevations and in the water retention from the evaporation or accumulation of water I'm the forms of lake and stream changes that impact the quantity and kind of fishes and water connected mammals, – the scope and detail of the things that are under consideration as climate change is impacting alaska & the north so rapidly are-extensive, deeply researched & important to how we as Alaskans adjust to the conditions that are changing faster here than. They aren't office parties!

The business of EPA aside, this is the first time in a long time I've read or heard any agency actually express concern about the taxpayer's money. We all know how little gets done at these events. Very refreshing!

Hell's bells,
The easiest way to contact Lisa Murkowski.
Is by leaving a message with Nancy Pelosi's or Up Chuck Schumers office.
| 6 |
I attempted to contact Senator Murkowski's office several times about this development.
Voicemail in DC.
Full mailbox in Anchorage.
Voicemail in Fairbanks.
Would someone please let Lisa in on how to clear her answering machine so Alaskans can contact her.
Senator Sullivan's DC office answered on the first ring....
I finally got through to Lisa's DC office........

We use islands in the South Pacific to detain illegals in Australia. If they arrive unlawfully by boat then they are forever denied a visa. We've learnt the hard way. May I suggest Canada doesn't go down that road.

Canada needs t build its own refugee camps. These will house any cross-border refugees, while they undergo vetting. Simply dropping the Safe 3rd Country Agreement will unleash a horde of refugee claimants. As it is, only the more motivated will come, and Canada needs an agreement with the U.S. to prosecute human smugglers.
If Canada doesn't get at least semi-tough with self-selected refugee claimants, we will have busloads of Mexicans coming from the Mexico-U.S. border to the Canadian border, without even a passport required (compared to those who flew to Canada to claim asylum and caused Canada to require advanced visas).

The American flag is the legal symbol of the legitimate government of the United States. The Confederate flag is the symbol of a defeated enemy of the United States. See any difference?
| 4 |
True, but you're also leaving out the next part of history. After the defeat, the south had to help expand west, then to help expel the Spanish to our south and give freedom, after which the law was revoked banning the flag.
Here's a link to the history around the confederate flaghttp://inthesetimes.com/article/18153/the-confederate-flag-at-war
Next point, when do we stop free speech for the sake of sparing someone discomfort? When is "political correctness" going too far?
A native American could argue that an American flag was provoking, because they killed and ravaged their people. Should we not have American flags then?

Both my statements above are proved by our discussions here, in the past few days and weeks.
For example, on my 'press citation' point:- You claimed that the 'US non-Catholic media' only wrote about Cardinal Burke, and you stated that none of that media had bothered even to mention the '13 Cardinals letter' (prior to the 2nd synod) because Burke wasn't one of the 13 signatories. It then took me about 5 minutes online searching, to turn up the fact that that the New Yorker had mentioned the 13 Cardinals letter. I stopped looking at that point, having proved you wrong. I gave you my findings, and/but you then came back with a comment along the lines that one press source wasn't enough. Well, yes it was.
And so on.
I am well able to prove what I write.
BTW, I have not made an 'ad hominem' attack on you. What I have been doing, is to criticise your method of 'reporting' (too partial), and your 'analysing' (based on biased sources, and too speculative).
PS - You said you were done?
| 4 |
No proof of the above. I cannot prove that your erroneous, unsubstantiated ad hominem attacks are true and neither can you.

I agree that the time were pretty limited, but then it comes off as not really sincere and calculated to bring the soft NDP vote to the Liberals. I never entertained the notion that they would alter the system unless it favoured them, and since that was a non-starter, they have spent the time since the election trying to get out of it. If I was a Liberal I would be glad that they ended it, as the Liberals have won many times in the past without having to resort to gimmicks or gaming the system.

There were several dynamics surrounding his promise for electoral reform, not the least of which was that, as the leader of the third party, his chances of becoming prime minister were at that time pretty limited.

Agreed, to a point. I would argue that outright prohibition is the highest level of government regulation. The ideal solution would have been full scale decriminalization, removing statutes rather than writing new ones.
| 4 |
You want more government and regulation? You wanted government regulation and oversight of pot, remember? Guess what, you got it.
.
As the poster above already articulated, the irony is completely lost on those pushing for government regulation of pot. These of the same hippies who don't want "the man" involved in their lives, but want them regulating and enforcing statute on to their various pot products and subproducts. And then are completely dumbfounded when government stifles, inhibits, blocks, and undermines their ability to operate in a in a free market.
Put that in your pipe and smoke it.

Agreed. We won't be rate hiking anytime soon. We will follow japans path of slowly making our way to negative and non stop failed stimulus. Anyone who thinks different, well probably believed the us was raising 4 times last year lmao. I always laugh at the unemployment number. People tend to think that means people became employed. Wrong. It means people's benefits ran out or were not approved. That's how that little sham of data works. Employment never keeps up with the population increase or number of new potential workers reaching age. It's phong numbers to make everyone chugging along until you reach the inevitable burst of bubbles that are created.
| 4 |
I have heard/read numerous interpretations of this morning Cdn employment data. Every single one of them has qualified the headline number by pointing out the disproportionate rise in part-time employment. That is a fact. Not an opinion. Of course markets are anticipating higher rates. In the US. If you truly believe that the BoC is even remotely considering a rate hike, then you are in a very, very tiny group of misinformed people. Oh, and thank you for playing.

This was not referenced in the opinion, according to my research,.
“Whenever the President finds that the entry of any aliens or of any class of aliens into the United States would be detrimental to the interests of the United States, he may by proclamation, and for such period as he shall deem necessary, suspend the entry of all aliens or any class of aliens as immigrants or nonimmigrants, or impose on the entry of aliens any restrictions he may deem to be appropriate”
If you can find it I will conceed:

I love all the banter of righteous people claiming we need our "Fair share and receive maximum benefits from development of our natural resources..." and then there is deafening silence when it comes to our fair share on fish taxes.
Commercial fisheries (private industry) harvests more than 99 percent of a public resource, which is about 6 billion pounds of seafood, valued at $6 billion.
The state only taxes the exvessel value - or about $1.8 billion. Is that fair?
The fish tax revenue does not generate enough revenue to even cover the cost of commercial fish management - the state has to use $25 million per year to subsidize the cost to manage this private industry. Is that fair?
$4 billion in export seafood value is not taxed by Alaska. This is the seafood processor value that leaves the state - primarily to Seattle. Not taxed. Zero. No benefit to the average Alaskan. Is that fair?
There is no royalty on fish taken by commercial fisheries - Is that fair?

These judges are supposed to be the guardians of the constitution. Yet nowhere in the constitution does the word "democracy" appear. There are good reasons our founders steered clear of forming a democracy, and I can point you at these if you would like. However, they did form a republic. Yes, there are democratic ideals instituted throughout our republic. But the fact these judges don't know the difference... is disturbing.
| 4 |
"it came from verbatim from the opinion written by the 9th Circuit itself."
Ah. I think I understand your issue better. You are conflating form with function. What function, or process, is used in the House and Senate on voting over bills? Is it a republic process where committees are elected and formed to decide if a proposed bill is passed into law or is it a democratic process where each member of the House and Senate votes on passage? Technically the same question applies to the Judiciary though SCOTUS provides for plurality as well as majority decisions.

Unfortunately Nemo, Trudeau has opened the TFW floodgates. Google it, the facts are easy to find.
And sorry to be the bearer of bad news again, but TFWs are counted in the employment numbers. StatsCan doesn't breakout TFW jobs from Canadian jobs.
Here's what StatsCan says: "There are no questions in the LFS that ask respondents whether they are temporary foreign workers. Therefore it is not possible to produce counts of, or employment numbers for, temporary foreign workers from the LFS."
http://www23.statcan.gc.ca/imdb/p2SV.pl?Function=getSurvey&SDDS=3701
The fact is that Trudeau doesn't care about regular Canadians like you and me, he's busy selling us down the river to his corporate pals.
| 10 |
"Trudeau has removed all restrictions on TFWs, so you can only imagine how much its increased since then."
How very Donald Trump, as I said.
"You should ask yourself why StatsCan isn't doing it"
Probably because TFW's don't count towards the employment rate - they are not part of Canada's work force - normally the word "Foreign" gives it away....
That's kinda basic
